Ice and Fire novel Chapter 550

It was around noon, when the wedding ceremony began. The bride, Selina, and the bridegroom, Wilson, walked slowly, matching steps with the music playing in the background. It was magical, as the guests looked upon the beautiful couple. Selina and Wilson turned to look at the crowd, surrounded by the people they loved and respected, they were thrilled. The crowd cheered and applauded, as they smiled. Their faces shone with happiness and in that moment, both Selina and Wilson knew that they were going to remember this forever.

The ceremony continued smoothly as the onlookers gazed with dreamy eyes at the couple. Everything went smoothly, just as expected. Finally, the bride walked up to the mic and took it in her hands to give a speech. The crowd fell silent, waiting to hear from the new bride. She said,"Thank you, dear family and friends, for gracing our wedding with your presence. It is indeed a beautiful time for us to be amidst you and be blessed by you. Today, I want to make an announcement. My company, JS Group, will now be taken over by my brother Derek. I hereby, declare him the President of JS Group."

Derek was caught absolutely unprepared. He didn't know how to react and stood, dumbfounded. 'Why didn't she discuss this with me before making a decision like this?' he wondered.

Jackson and Cherry were taken aback too. They could not understand why Selina would step aside and give up her position like that.

"Derek, did you know about this? Have you and Selina discussed this?" Amy was surprised, as she looked directly at Derek and questioned him.

Bewildered, Derek shook his head and said,"No, actually she has never ever brought this up."

Jackson studied Selina's smiling face carefully and said,"Judging by how happy she is, it seems this thought had been brewing in her mind for a very long time. It isn't an impulsive decision at all."

"Yes, it seems so. I guess it had been in her mind for a long time." Cherry agreed with Jackson.

Derek caught Selina's eye in the crowd. They both looked at each other. Derek was extremely thrilled, since he understood why Selina had suddenly handed over the company to him.

Once the ceremony was over, Selina headed towards a dressing room for a change of clothes. As she entered, she caught sight of Cherry, who was waiting inside the room.

Selina was surprised to see her there. She asked,"Cherry! What are you doing here?" Selina did not understand why Cherry was here when she should have been eating lunch with Jackson in the hall.

Cherry gently walked up to Selina and held her hand. She said,"I came her for you. I thought you might need a helping hand."
